Kenyan content creator Sheryl Gabriella has once again left social media users stunned after revealing just how much money she can make from TikTok in a single day.
The influencer, who has built a strong following through lifestyle content and TikTok Live sessions, shared a screenshot of her earnings, showing that she had made approximately Sh 62,000 in just one day from the platform’s live gifts and monetisation features.
The revelation sparked widespread debate, with many Kenyans expressing surprise at how lucrative content creation has become.
Sharing the screenshot on her social media pages, Sheryl proudly wrote:
“This is my earnings today on my TikTok live. One night. Haya, endeleeni kupayuka.”
She did not stop there, taking another swipe at critics who have previously questioned her success.
“Now compare me with your broke girls who ask for Sh 2k urgently. Let’s have it! Let’s have it!”
Earlier Claimed She Earns Sh 500,000 Monthly
Sheryl’s latest revelation comes just days after she disclosed that she earns around Sh 500,000 every month through her online activities, including TikTok, brand partnerships and other digital ventures.
At the time, she dismissed critics who doubted her financial success, insisting that content creation had become a full-time career capable of generating impressive income for creators who remain consistent.
Her latest earnings screenshot appears to reinforce her earlier claims, with many followers pointing out that earning over Sh 62,000 in a single day could easily translate into hundreds of thousands of shillings every month, depending on the frequency of her livestreams and audience engagement.
Netizens React
As expected, Sheryl’s post quickly went viral, attracting mixed reactions online.
While some congratulated her for proving that social media can be a profitable career, others questioned whether such earnings are sustainable every day.
Some users praised her confidence, saying she had every right to celebrate her achievements after working hard to grow her audience.
Others, however, felt that comparing herself to other women was unnecessary, arguing that everyone has different financial journeys.
TikTok Becoming a Goldmine for Creators
Sheryl’s revelation highlights the growing opportunities available to creators on TikTok.
The platform allows eligible users to earn through LIVE gifts, creator rewards, brand collaborations and affiliate marketing, making it one of the fastest-growing income sources for digital influencers.
Earnings, however, vary significantly depending on audience size, engagement and monetisation opportunities.
Over the past few years, several Kenyan creators have publicly opened up about earning substantial amounts from social media, a sign that content creation is increasingly becoming a viable profession for many young people.
Whether one agrees with her bold remarks or not, Sheryl Gabriella’s latest earnings disclosure has once again ignited conversations about the money being made in Kenya’s booming creator economy, and left many wondering whether they, too, should start taking TikTok more seriously.
